Well, no doubt it’s been a busy week. I have lots of reasons to have a post called Thankful Thursday. The long awaited wedding happened, I’m healthy, I worked almost the whole week and I’m still going lol
1. The Bride paid for her bridesmaids to get our nails done. The only requirements – if we got a french manicure, only she could have it be a white one. And, the colors we had to use was navy, silver or a combination of the two. I’ve never in my life had my nails done in a salon as I’ve always done them myself….faster, easier, less expense. But it was a very interesting experience and here is what I got…a silver french manicure.
It’s still in great shape almost a week later too…I guess becos of the shellac or something.
2. A couple hours after our nail appointment, we headed to the church for rehearsal and then to a restaurant I hadn’t been to before for the rehearsal dinner. The buffet was scrumptious! My husband and I had the honor of meeting a lot of the bride’s and groom’s family and friends from out of town. It was a fun evening and we did turn in early enough to be rested for the big day on Saturday.
3. The wedding went without a hitch and everyone looked great. I met more lovely people and the newly married couple seemed so happy. After the fun reception where we danced and danced, visited and played in the photo booth, we headed to a nearby hotel where the wedding party occupied a block of rooms. I like staying in hotels – it’s a mini adventure for me and I can pretend I’m on vacation. Yes, I’m easily pleased.
Here are a couple shots of my friend, her 3 daughters on the left, her friend from college and me in one photo and myself in our hotel room in the other. Not the best shots but it is what I have.
4. Not too much else has happened since the weekend. I have worked 4 days in a row between my full time and part time jobs so I’m still tired from the weekend. Not really a highlight, more like a downer – the tired part haha A lot of travelers and the girls from the lawyer firm commented on my ‘pretty nails’ which helped me get thru my long days at work this week tho.

5. I haven’t worked out at my usual pace partially becos I’ve been tired and partially becos I’ve been lazy. I realize that’s not the way to be so I will be making adjustments so I can continue on the path I want to be on.
6. I’m still eating pretty clean so that’s one less thing I have to adjust. Yay!
